The chapters are short, packed with real stories from teens, cartoons and quick exercises at the end of each one. Teens who liked it say the same thing: it didn't feel like a lecture. Hand it over as one habit a week and it reads in small pieces.

Hear it from our customers!
"She Stopped Rolling Her Eyes By Chapter Two"
I'd been saying the same things to my 14-year-old for a year. She read the Personal Bank Account chapter on her own, and now she quotes it back at me. First time advice from our house actually stuck.
"The Graduation Gift He Didn't Shove In A Drawer"
I bought it for my grandson's eighth-grade graduation. Two weeks later he texted me a photo of his mission statement taped above his desk. He starts high school next month and he's the calmest one in the house.
"One Habit A Week Over Saturday Breakfast"
My son is 15 and shuts down at anything that sounds like a lecture. The cartoons and short stories got him through chapter one, and the exercises gave us something to talk about that wasn't his grades.
